Given below are two statement: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A:$ If an electric dipole of dipole moment $30 \times 10^{-5}\,Cm$ is enclosed by a closed surface, the net flux coming out of the surface will be zero.
Reason $R$ : Electric dipole consists of two equal and opposite charges.
In the light of above, statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Both $A$ and $R$ are true and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A$
$A$ is true but $R$ is false
Both $A$ and $R$ true but $R$ is NOT the correct explanation of $A$
$A$ is false but $R$ is true
Solution
$\overrightarrow{ P }=30 \times 10^{-5}\,Cm$
Using Gauss law
$\phi=\frac{Q_{\text {in }}}{\varepsilon_0} \text { and } Q_{\text {in }}=0$
$\Rightarrow \phi=0$
Statement $1$ and Statement $2$ are correct.
